Research administration
UIS works closely with the Research Office in maintaining and developing the systems that ensure the smooth running of the University's research administration.
High-performance computing
Research Computing Services offers hosting, management and operation of small, dedicated HPC clusters for individual research groups within any institution in the University. The service also provides consultancy in the procurement and building of HPC facilities for research groups.
Research data storage
Our research data storage services offer a competitively priced alternative to storage on local platforms, which can be costly to implement and maintain, and to storage on external drives, where data may be physically vulnerable and there is little or no guarantee that lost, stolen or corrupted data can be recovered.
Human Tissue Tracker
The University's Human Tissue Tracker is a web application and data store to assist the process of recording and tracking human tissue samples. The tool is born out of the need to comply with the UK's Human Tissue Act 2004. It can be used by any registered lab or institution in the University.
Reference management programs
UIS supports and runs training courses on three reference management programs: EndNote, Mendeley and Zotero.
